about the programme

Foundation Programme emphasises systematic study, meditation and discussion through which we can deepen our understanding and experience. Through this we can gain practical experience of Buddha’s teachings that transform our everyday life.

The current book being studied is ‘The New Eight Steps to Happiness’. The book is available to buy in the centre shop or to download as an e-book from http://tharpa.com

You must enrol on the programme to join but you can try a class for free first.
